The King’s Speech is a seriously hot contender at the Oscars this year, with a massive 12 nominations in the annual competition.
Clearly it has a lot of fans out there – including, apparently, Queen Elizabeth II herself (who is played in the film by young Freya Wilson).
An insider at the monarch’s household has revealed that the Queen received two copies of the film just before Christmas and watched it at Sandringham House.
“The Queen loves a good film,” the insider tells The Sun . “ The King's Speech is close to the bone as it is a portrayal of her family in the 1930s, but she found it moving and enjoyable.
“She was clearly amused by some of the lighter moments.”
Nice to know who HRH will be backing when the Oscar winners are announced during the ceremony on 27 February.
